soooo i tried cyanogen mod 14.1 and i was greated by a message that is different at the one you get on marshmallow, but overall it wasnt working. Are there any success cases of vulkan on android. I was pretty sure this phone was supported

btw performance suxxxx on cyanogen 14.1 not worth the update guys. Better wait for the community version of android N

Vulkan does "work", but right now the drivers are so broken on pretty much every device except the Shield TV that it doesn't work like it should. On my OnePlus 3, the only game I've tried that renders correctly with Vulkan is Cave Story. Everything else is terribly broken.

Drivers should hopefully improve in the future. Dave Burke I think it was said that google intends to start moving android rendering over to Vulkan instead of ES2.0, and once that happens the drivers will get cleaned up real quick since the entire UI will break if the drivers blow.

I am still on 3.2 after seeing that case of rendering issues from somebody else.

On linux, the rendering issues are fixed now with a new driver update from nvidia. So I guess we have to wait for 3.4...

Hrm...I have Vulkan issues with later versions of Dolphin on Windows via laptop while an older build works fine.
The problem on it though is the screen of the game is very dark,I haven't tried a more recent build since then.
